Popis: In this paper, an L-stable Second Derivative Block Backward Differentiation Formula (SDBBDF) of order 5 is presented for the solutions of parabolic equations. It applied the use of the classical method of lines for the discretization of the parabolic equations. The method reduces the one-dimensional parabolic partial differential equation which has integral or non-integral boundary conditions to a system of Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) with initial conditions. The stability properties of the block method are investigated using the boundary locus plot and the method was found to be L-stable. The derived method is implemented on standard problems of parabolic equations and the results obtained show that the method is accurate and efficient.
